BOSTON (WHDH) - People in Boston are still digging out from the snowstorm Tuesday morning after days of snow resulted in mounds of snow blocking walkways and covering cars — with little space to move it all.
People spent hours Monday trying to clear sidewalks, fire hydrants, and their vehicles from the nearly two feet of snow on the ground.
“I hope this never happens again,” said Lilianna Ruyz. “It’s just so horrible trying to drive out here with all this snow and then they keep blocking the cars in so it’s really hard to shovel your car and then be able to get where you need to be at.”
“It’s been a while since we had any amount of snow like this. So it was kind of a surprise for me,” said Diana Guerro.
While many adults were set to return to work Tuesday, kids in Boston won’t have school; the city is still working to clear the snowbanks along neighborhood streets to make sure buses can safely pick up students.
Some families said they’re getting a little help with clean up at home because of the day off.
“My son was really helpful. He came out all geared up in his snowpants, he started to throw snow around. I hoped we would be a little more helpful but he had a lot of fun,” said Jodie Fink.
The Boston Department of Public Works said it hasn’t decided where all the snow will go yet, but it will be taken away Tuesday night.
